French billionaire Bollore targeted in fraud case over Africa ports
Briefly

Groups from Togo, Guinea, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon have filed complaints alleging that business tycoon Vincent Bollore and his son engaged in corruption to secure port concessions. The accusations stem from the activities of the Bollore Group's logistics operations in Africa, which was sold in 2022 yet allegedly relied on unlawfully gained profits. Investigations have previously explored ties to political financing in exchange for concessions. The collective, 'Restitution for Africa', claims that actions taken by the Bollore Group facilitated money laundering through these dealings.
The collective of NGOs, 'Restitution for Africa', accuses Vincent Bollore and his son of unlawfully benefiting from port concessions through corruption and influence peddling.
French investigators previously examined allegations that the Bollore Group had illegal dealings during presidential campaigns in exchange for advantageous port concessions.
